The antisense morpholino oligonucleotides (MOs) were synthesized by Gene Tools, LLC. The sequences for MOs were as follows: ephb4b-MO1, 5′-GATCACTTCAGTCTCTCTGATATGA-3′; ephb4b-MO2, 5′-AATCCAGCAAACACGATCCATCTCA-3′; ephb4b-sMO, 5′-TCATCTCCTCCCACTGACACAACAC-3′; efnb2b-MO1, 5′-CGCAGGCACTAAAACGAGCACAATC-3′; efnb2b-MO2, 5′-TAACTCCAGACAGTCGCATCCATTG-3′; cMO, 5′-CCTCTTACCTCAGTTACAATTTATA-3′; ephb3a-MO, 5′-GACAGAAAGTCTCGTTAAATCTCAG-3′; efnb2a-MO, 5′-CGGTCAAATTCCGTTTCGCGGGA-3′ (Cooke et al., 2005 (link)).
For knockdown or overexpression in the whole embryo, reagents were injected at the one-cell stage. For knockdown or overexpression specifically in DFCs, reagents were injected together with 1 µg/µl Rhodamine into the yolk cell at around the 512-cell stage, followed by selection of Rhodamine-positive embryos at 60%-70% ES.
Unless otherwise stated, the injection doses were as follows: 10 ng ephb4b-MO2, 7 ng efnb2b-MO2, 300 pg ephb4b or ephb4b-mCherry, 400 pg ephb4bΔCT-mCherry, 250 pg CAAX-mCherry, 250 pg s-efnb2a-mCherry, 250 pg s-efnb2b-mCherry, 250 pg efnb2a-mCherry, 250 pg efnb2b-mCherry, 25 pg rhoaV14, 300 pg rhoaN19 and 300 pg dnrock2a mRNA.

Antisense Morpholinos for Zebrafish Gene Knockdown

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Antisense morpholino oligonucleotides (MOs) were obtained from Gene Tools, LLC (Philomath, OR, USA). MOs were solubilized in DNase/RNase-free water to generate 4 mM stock solutions, which were stored at 20 °C. Zebrafish embryos were injected at the 1-cell stage with 5 nL of diluted MO. Optimal dosage was determined by previously published doses and our own experience [53 (link)]. esr1 was targeted with 5′–catgtaaaacaggctggtcacCTTG–3′ (0.4 mM). Esr2a was targeted with 5′–agagagtcttacCTTGTATACTC–3′ (0.8 mM). Esr2b was targeted with 5′–ttgaccatgagcattacCTTGAATG–3′ (0.8 mM) [53 (link)]. Uab127 embryos were genotyped with the forward primer 5′–GTCCCGCTTAGTCCCACAAT–3′ and the reverse primer 5′–TGACAGCTGCCACCTAAAGA–3′ [54 (link)].

prdm12b Knockdown Using Morpholinos

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Antisense morpholino oligonucleotides (MOs) were obtained from Gene Tools LLC. MO injections were performed into the yolk of 1-cell stage embryos using 1-2 ng of solution containing dilutions of 3 mM morpholino stock, distilled water and phenyl red. An MO with the sequence 5′-GCAGGCAACACTGAACCCATGATGA-3′ was used to target the prdm12b translation start site. This MO was reported previously [22 ] and our analyses in this manuscript demonstrate that the effects of MO-mediated prdm12b knockdown are indistinguishable from the effects of prdm12b germ line mutations.

Antisense Morpholino Targeting sar1b

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Antisense morpholino oligonucleotides (MOs) (Gene Tools, Corvallis, OR) were designed to target the sar1b 5′UTR sequence (sar1b-MO): 5′-CAGTCCAACGGGGATCAATGAGGAA-3′. The sar1b-MO targets bp 41–65 of the sar1b 5′UTR, which is 45 bp upstream of the ATG site. This target site is unique to sar1b and is not present in sar1a. 1 nl was injected into 1–2 cell stage embryos at increasing doses (0.4 ng–3 ng) to determine optimal concentrations. To confirm morpholino-targeting efficiency, 60 pg of sar1b-eGFP mRNA (see Fig. 1J, K) was co-injected with 0.4 ng and 1 ng of sar1b-MO, and loss of eGFP expression was analyzed. All data presented in figures are at 0.4 ng, determined to be the optimal concentration. Control morpholino provided by manufacturer did not generate morphological changes.

An MO targeted against the translation initiation region of zHIF-1α (zHIF-1α MO: 5′-CAG TGA CAA CTC CAG TAT CCA TTC C-3′) was used to knockdown the zHIF-1α protein. The standard control MO (5′-CCT CTT ACC TCA GTT ACA ATT TAT A-3′) was used as an injection control. The optimized morpholino amount for zHIF-1α knockdown experiments was 8 ng/embryo. Injected embryos were reared to the desired developmental stages under hypoxic or normoxic conditions as described above.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Antisense morpholino oligonucleotides (MOs) targeting the rbc3a 5′ untranslated region (rbc3a-MO1), translation start site (rbc3a-MO2), and the previously described atp6v0a1 intron/exon boundary (v0a1-MO [27] (link)) were purchased from Gene Tools and dissolved in 1× Danieau buffer for injection. For MO experiments, 1–3 ng of rbc3a-MO1/embryo, 5 ng of rbc3a-MO2/embryo, or 4 ng of v0a1-MO/embryo was injected into one- to four-cell-stage embryos along with 1 ng p53-MO/embryo to inhibit nonspecific cell death. Unless otherwise noted, all Rbc3a knockdown experiments were performed with rbc3a-MO1. See Table S2 for MO sequences. For RNA injection experiments, the full-length ORFs of rbc3a in Tol2CG or zebrafish frizzled7b-YFP (fz7-yfp) pCS2+ construct [32] (link) were translated using mMessage mMachine kit (Ambion) and injected at the one-cell stage. A pCMVSPORT6 DNA vector containing a shortened ORF of Xenopus rbc3a (Open Biosystems, Accession No. BC127555) was injected at the one-cell stage.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
